Nick's Beer Garden: User Reviews

Horrible Bachelorette experience
By npiltawer from Uptown, November 22, 2009

Overall rating:

Having a fun night out with the girls to celebrate my upcoming nuptials, but should have known that the place was going to a bad experience as the doorman was rude and aggressive. Beyond that, the bartender was unqualified as a list of 7 different shots had to be suggested before he knew how to make something. This place will never be visited by myself or anyone else I know.

nice pub
By BRUCE WAYNE from Logan Square, July 23, 2008

Overall rating:

great place to go with a tight group of friends and get wasted. Prices are good and the drinks are good, too. Sometimes they have live bands which makes it loud and interesting. our waitress was really nice and even though my friend puked all over the bar they were still nice. Sure it's a crazy place when it's crowded.

Overall rating:

Great Chicago neighborhood spot! Good beer line-up and nice cocktails. Come in and exchange travel stories with veteran bartender/world traveler Thor on Sundays and Mondays! Open until 4am. Pool table, pinball, and a great urban beer garden. Weekends are packed with party people. Weeknights have a cool laidback funky attitude. Located in the ecclectic artsy Wicker Park neighborhood. Tons of shops, cafés, restaurants and nightlife nearby. See you there!

Nick's is a haven...those who call it a dirty, scummy, yuppy-driven arena must be yuppies themselves...look for the good, escape from the bad.
Nick's has a good selection of beer, a great selection of people, the bartenders are hip hop happening, and if you enjoy hanging out, maybe catching a game of pool or two, or just chilling in the background, this bar is great. It's no freaking martini bar, but for god's sake, aren't there enough of those to go around!? I definitely recommend checking this place out...there's no real bells and whistles...but thank god, we have enough of those in our every day lives!!
